6.5 Run the PINGME.C Sample Program

Connect the crossover cable from your computer's Ethernet port to the RCM3365/
RCM3375 board's RJ-45 Ethernet connector. Open this sample program from the
SAMPLES\TCPIP\ICMP
The crossover cable is connected from your computer's Ethernet adapter to the RCM3365/
RCM3375 board's RJ-45 Ethernet connector. When the program starts running, the green
light on the RCM3365/RCM3375 module should be on to indicate an Ethernet con-
LINK
nection is made. (Note: If the
cable, or if you are using a hub with straight-through cables perhaps the power is off on
the hub.)
The next step is to ping the board from your PC. This can be done by bringing up the MS-
DOS window and running the pingme program:
ping 10.10.6.101
or by
Start > Run
and typing the entry
ping 10.10.6.101
Notice that the yellow
ping is taking place, and indicates the transfer of data. The ping routine will ping the board
four times and write a summary message on the screen describing the operation.

6.6 Running Additional Sample Programs With Direct Connect

The following sample programs are in the Dynamic C
folder.
—This program demonstrates a basic controller running a Web page.
•
BROWSELED.C
Two "device LEDs" are created along with two buttons to toggle them. Users can use
their Web browser to change the status of the lights. The DS3 and DS4 LEDs on the
Prototyping Board will match those on the Web page. As long as you have not modified
the

in to the Prototyping Board when using this sample program. This program demon-
strates sending e-mail messages that are then shown on the LCD/keypad module dis-
play. The keypad is used to scroll through a menu to view the messages, flip to other
messages, mark messages as read, and delete messages. When a new e-mail arrives, an
LED on the LCD/keypad module turns on, and then turns off once the message has
been marked as read. A log of all e-mail actions is kept, and can be displayed in the
Web browser. All current e-mails can also be read with the Web browser.
